Dm    /  Bb   C




Bb         C            Dm
   Getting crazy on the waltzers  
F                           C
   but it's the life that i choose
   G                     F C     
   sing about the six blade sing about the switchback 
Dm
   and a torture tattoo
                 C           Dm
   and i’ve been riding on a ghost train 
F                      C
   where the cars they scream and slam
                               G         G7
   and i don't know where i'll be tonight 
F G        Dm
   but i'd always tell you where i am


        C                 Dm
   in a screaming ring of faces 
F                                 C
   I’ve  seen her standing in the light
                            G 
   she had a ticket for the races 
F       G                      Dm    
   yeah just like me she was a victim of the night
           C             Dm 
   i put a hand upon the lever 
F                              C
   said let it rock and let it roll
G                       F   G   
   i had the one arm bandit fever 
                Dm
   there was an arrow through my heart and my soul

             C         Bb              C    F               
     and the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
Bb                F          F
     and i'm just high on this world
          Am7           Dm            C  Bb
     come on and take a low ride with me girl
     C      Dm
     on the tunnel of love
